Charlie Cook’s people switch 13 House races to favorable for Democrats…

It just keeps sounding better for the Democrats gaining a majority in next year’s congress….

The Cook Political Report has shifted several House races toward the Democratic Party ahead of November’s midterm elections, the nonpartisan elections analyst said Friday.

A number of House Democrats had their seats shifted to the left by Cook, while the report says a number of Republicans could now face higher chances of defeat in November.

In total, 13 races were shifted by Cook to the left in the latest rankings, including those involving Reps. Tom MacArthur (R-N.J.), David Valadao (R-Calif.) and Robert Pittenger (R-N.C.), who all saw their districts move from “likely” Republican to the more vulnerable category of “lean” Republican.
